The Need to Lead: Is God Waiting for You to Lead?

I recently came across this statement, which should shake the foundations of your life and your career:

Based on a study conducted by Arizona Christian University during 2020 – 2023, born again Christians deeply committed to practicing their faith fell from 88% to 46%. Worse yet, this study discovered that only 6% of professed Christians have a biblical worldview. Instead, most have a smorgasbord view of their faith, picking and choosing what they believe.

The trend is obvious. Here’s another study that found similar results.

In a 2020 survey by the Pew Research Center, 65% of adults in the United States identified themselves as Christians. [“Measuring Religion in Pew Research Center’s American Trends Panel”. Measuring Religion in Pew Research Center’s American Trends Panel | Pew Research Center. Pew Research Center. 14 January 2021. Archived from the original on 8 February 2021. Retrieved 9 February 2021.]

Here’s what that means:

• As a percentage, there are fewer self-proclaimed Christians today than at any time in the country’s history.

• Of those, that subset of Christians who are deeply committed has fallen in half.

• Of those self-proclaimed Christians only 6% have a Biblical worldview.

Introducing PIQ Solutions

What are PIQ Solutions?

PIQ Solutions are curated, vetted documents designed to tackle common challenges. They offer insights, principles, and practices to navigate them. Imagine having a treasure trove of knowledge at your fingertips… no more trial and error!

Here's how PIQ Solutions can transform your problem-solving approach:

Gain Practical Steps: Each solution provides a clear, step-by-step process to apply to your unique situation.
Stay Updated: Watch out for new PIQ Solutions every month, tailored to your evolving needs.

Whenever I give a seminar, I encourage people to submit a Problem, Issue or a Question” anonymously on a card during the seminar -- a PIQ!. I gather them and respond to each one.

Over time, I have developed a body of knowledge for common PIQs, as well as a system for creating solutions for new PIQs. Now, I’m turning that knowledge into vetted and organized documents called PIQ Solution.

Each PIQ Solution begins with the statement of the PIQ and then provides selected content (blog posts, podcasts, videos, etc.). That content provides insights, principles and practices to solve that PIQ. Every PIQ contains a step-by-step process for solving that problem, resolving that issue, or answering that question.

You can spend months or years resolving your PIQs on your own through trial and error, or you can take advantage of a proven, vetted source.

So, there are fewer Christians, most don’t know exactly what they believe and fewer are really committed. Truly, we are down to a remnant.

What an incredibly sad state of affairs. Satan must be proud of himself. It’s like the NBA championship game, and your team is leading by 50 points at halftime. You can start to celebrate, even though the game is only partially over.

There are multiple reasons for this sorry state. There is enough blame to spread all around our culture, including:

• The entertainment industry that continues to portray Christians as either hypocrites or buffoons.

• A political environment where both parties have sacrificed moral positions for political advantage.

• An educational system that champions perverse concepts at the expense of moral values that have served mankind for centuries.

• An institutional church system which has failed in its core mission: “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 The one who believes and is baptized will be saved, but the one who does not... CLICK HERE TO READ THE FULL ARTICLE

Churchianity or Christianity?

Literally millions of people have been exposed to Christ through our institutional churches. The problem is that what happens there so turns them off that they are lost to Christianity for the rest of their lives. They equate church with Christianity, and find church to be disagreeable, and so reject Christ. It’s like we are vaccinating them from ever considering Christ again. A vaccination is made from dead and powerless organisms, that, when injected into our body prevent us from contacting the real thing. That’s exactly what we are doing to the lost around us. We bring them into our churches, and it turns them off. They equate church with Christianity, and then become immune to the real power of Christ.

Using Key Metrics to Take Your Sales Efforts to a Higher Level

Over my career as a sales expert, I’ve personally and contractually worked with over 500 sales organizations. I’ve learned some things. Here’s one: Very few chief sales officers have a good handle on the economics of the sales force. And very few entrepreneurs think about the economics of a sales system. Almost everyone can tell you what the amounts of the various categories on a P&L statement indicate. So, sales salaries, expenses, advertising costs, etc. are readily at hand. However, very few decision makers dig deeper. And that means that significant information is never uncovered, and decisions are made on the basis of superficial, and often flawed, information. Let’s dig deeper.

Everyone needs a bit of inspiration, education and motivation.
